Chapter 1: Dilemma

Next Chapter

In the lobby of the hotel, Bordeaux reds flown in from French wineries are placed on an elaborate iceboat, flowing down the artificial blue river, and the waiter, with a standard smile on his face, picks up from the iceboat, expertly pulls the cork, pours the red liquid into the goblet, and carries the tray freely through the crowd.

"Mr. Gu, if you can drink this bottle of whiskey in one go today, then I will cooperate with you Gu for this project, and this proposal is not a loss. ”

But even if this is an occasion for the powerful to come and go, there will still be ugliness that cannot be concealed by a glamorous appearance.

Gu Yan looked at the bottle of wine, her face suddenly changed, and her stomach was twitching reflexively, in order to win this project, she licked her face and followed behind this Wang Zong, greeting each other with a smile and flattery, but she didn't get anything.

Gu Yan glanced at Jiang Chenxi in the crowd not far away, a well-cut suit made him look long and handsome, but at this time, his peach blossom eyes also looked at her like a joke, with the same mockery as the crowd around him.

She had a headache, it was her husband, who was watching her jokes like those strangers at this time, even if the Jiang family had a big business, these people also knew that Jiang Chenxi would not stop her at all, so they embarrassed her so unscrupulously.

"Mr. Wang, you are not a good man, a woman in embarrassment!" someone in the crowd teased, causing a burst of laughter.

That Mr. Wang had a big belly, and his fat eyes were lost with a smile, and he smiled with no skin and no face.

"I have never said what kind of hero I am, this shopping mall is like a battlefield, men and women are not easy to deal with, I like people with courage, today I will put my words here, who can give this bottle of wine to a sip, I will hand over the project over there in the East Fourth Ring Road. ”

When some people at the banquet heard that it was the East Fourth Ring, their eyes lit up greedily, it was a big piece of fat, but as soon as their eyes touched the bottle of wine in Mr. Wang's hand, the eagerness in their hearts was immediately extinguished, and the bottle of whiskey would take half a life if you don't die.

But in the end, there is something that is not fatal, Gu Yan looked at the crowd and some people were eager to try, and his face sank, this Wang always wanted to force her to a dead end.

She picked up the bottle of whiskey and opened it, her smiling face was a little charming, and her fingers gently slid across Mr. Wang's fat chest.

"Mr. Wang, you have to talk about it. With that, she looked at the crowd of onlookers. "You have a testimony here. ”

After saying that, she ignored the greatly changed faces of the people, raised her chin and drank directly to the wine bottle.

Mr. Wang's face turned pale because of this change, his original intention was to let this difficult woman retreat, not really want her life, although this Gu Yan is no longer liked by Jiang Chenxi, but in the end, it is the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, the Gu family is not afraid, but the Jiang family is not something he can afford to provoke.

Gu Yan only felt a roar in her head, she closed her eyes, the spicy liquid flowed through her throat, irritating tears slid down her cheeks, she felt that it was burning from her esophagus to her stomach, her throat twitched several times and wanted to vomit but she endured it hard, until the last drop of liquid flowed into her mouth, she fell to her knees and almost vomited her soul.

I don't know if the people around her were frightened, the silence at the banquet was terrible, Gu Yan stood up staggeringly, her face was pale, she even tasted the smell of blood tumbling from her stomach to her throat, she shook the wine bottle in her hand, and squeezed out a smile.

"Mr. Wang, I'm not welcome to this East Fourth Ring Road, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, it's better to sign the contract today." ”

Gu Yan's words and actions were almost like a knife on Mr. Wang's neck, just now Mr. Wang's words were listened to so many people, Gu Yan drank so much that he almost lost half his life, so many people also watched, Mr. Wang's face was stupid, and he had to sign his name.

"I won't talk about the others in your family, this courage is not even comparable to that of men, it's amazing, it's really amazing. Sheng Yu touched Jiang Chenxi on the side, and had a rare admiration and appreciation for Gu Yan.

Jiang Chenxi sneered, gently shook the scarlet liquid of the wine glass in his hand, and looked at Gu Yan not far away in disgust, the other party also happened to look at him, looked at his eyes, froze for a moment, and looked away with a gloomy look.

"You don't know how far she can go for what she thinks of getting something, it's not that it's not courage, it's greed. ”

Sheng Yu glanced at Gu Yan's emaciated back, such a thin body, but everyone couldn't think of what she could do.

"It's been so many years, we can all see how Gu Yan treats you, it's not too much to say that it's "twenty-four filial piety", why haven't you covered your heart yet. ”

Jiang Chenxi's eyes were gloomy, and he tugged at the corners of his mouth lightly.

Sheng Yu was silent, and he didn't know what Gu Yan had done in his previous life, he fell in love with Jiang Chenxi, who was cold-blooded and cold to her, and since then he has been humbled to the dust, in other aspects, Gu Yanjian is like a poppy, vicious but coquettish, but as long as he faces Jiang Chenxi, the whole person is cowardly as if he is covered with dust, and people can't notice her advantages in other aspects.

"Ah.....h

A scream interrupted the conversation between the two, someone seemed to have fallen into the water, Sheng Yu heard the prestige, but saw that the person in the water was Gu Yan, the water in the pool was not deep, but it made Gu Yan extremely embarrassed, her hair was wet and sticking to her face, and the skirt of the long dress floated on the water, but she was soaked in water, and the curve of her figure wrapped in the dress was looming, she drank too much wine, and she couldn't stand on her feet in the water.

Gu Yan stood in the water blankly and looked around, she was pushed down, but she didn't know who was the one who did it, many people today were angry that she got the project of the East Fourth Ring Road, she wiped the water on her face, and glanced in the direction of Jiang Chenxi, but only saw the other party standing on the shore with a wine glass and looking at it expressionlessly.

"She's still your wife, aren't you going to help her?" Sheng Yu still couldn't stand it, and couldn't help but propose.

"You look down on her cheekiness so much that she won't care about it. Jiang Chenxi took a sip of red wine and wrote lightly that Gu Yan, who did not hesitate to threaten the lives of his friends to marry into the Jiang family, was not a problem at all.

Sheng Yu sighed helplessly.

"It's been so many years, and no matter how strong she is, she's still a woman. Sheng Yu couldn't bear to look at Gu Yan, who slowly climbed ashore and was looked at as a joke, even if it was for the sake of the Jiang family's face, he couldn't just let it go.

Sheng Yu just couldn't look past it, and looked at Jiang Chenxi, who was indifferent, so he had to step forward and take off his coat and drape it on Gu Yan's shoulders.

"Thank you. Gu Yan's voice trembled and thanked him, his body couldn't help shaking, but he still gritted his teeth to stay awake.

Gu Yan looked at Jiang Chenxi again, thinking that he had asked Sheng Yu to come over, but he only saw Jiang Chenxi's figure leaving without any nostalgia, and hurriedly returned his coat to Sheng Yu, stumbling to leave with Jiang Chenxi.
